Famale Charchters in Videogames: The Opposite of "attractive" would it work?

[the dark side]

i warn you now that this is going to come across as completely and totally and utterly crazy, and possibly MORE than a little bit sexist! so bear with me please ok.

with my pet project still suffering from a dire lack of cashflow, ive had time to play some more action games, as well as watch videos of whatever rubbish has currently been launched or is due to be launched soon. something i have noticed.

I find the female charachters portrayed to be disturbing. not being sexist here, i just, dont, like, them....

i have noticed a trend in action videogames for the NPC "love interest" to be a charachter type i cannot stand to see as NPC, often very bad tempered with an awfull bad attitude, a complete lack of discipline, immense Bitchyness, very thin, with highly Fantasized "physical attributes", and often in extremely skimpy and sexualised clothing, highly indipendant and warrior like, etc,.

Now, although this is fine if the charachter is the playable one, such as Cate Archer, Lara Croft, or Joanna (not jo..zero is NON CANNON ok?) Dark, seeing as well, you want the player charachter to be able to look after themselves to the level the player will demand.

But as for the NPC love interest, i find it offputting, completly, to the point i actually have no desire what so ever to protect that charachter, as far as i am concerned they are more than proficient at looking after themself, wich frequently leads to mission failure. (botheration!) in fact i just cannot STAND them.

There massive "you cant tell me what to do!" attitude problem seriously winds me up. just shut up ok! sheer Bitchyness and terrrible "touch this and you die" bad attitude, god, it makes me want to scream! i hate it, completely, its enough to make me stop playing the game, i dont see why i should be helping a charachter i would much rather remove from the game entirely so they stop ruining the story for me by making me constantly angry!.

as for the sexualiseation, please, its OFFENSIVE! it puts me off completely, it makes me feel sick, they way in game women seem to keep dressing as ladies of the night, its disgusting. look, im a methodist christian right? (i know, im commiting suicide admitting to being religious on these forums) that means i have very "it is wrong" views on pre marital sex and sexualised dressing. so i get offended if i see it being promoted.

its also worrying, as it gives girls very negative characther stereotypes, wich leads them to beleive they have to be bitchy and be super thin and dress like a tart to get a boy, wrong, all that gets you is a hoodied thug who is going to smack the crap out of you, abuse you, then leave you carrying baby when someone prettier comes along for him to abuse. its not good for society! or the mental and physical health of our teenage girls.

for my own title, i want to avoid this completely, so its NPC story love interest is the total opposite, in fact, she is based on someone i knew, and adored, in my own life, sadly, we were seperated when her parents moved down south with jobs, shes married with kids now. anyway, the charachter is based on her as i remember her. wich means shes also the total opposite of the way pretty much 90% of female charachters are in videogames today, in the same way her real life inspiration was the total opposite of the "popular" megabitch girls of our yeargroup. (yes, it was so long ago it was back when i was in highschool!,they just dont make girls like her anymore!)

what worries me is, is the charachter going to work? the good news is, she isnt in the game that much, cutscene only and back at "headquaters" owing to her position of the secretary of the main player charachter, but, i am still worried that, as much as i love the charachter, as shes based on someone i loved in real life, is she going to put other players of the game?, owing to them perhaps being, i dont know, embarrassed by her charachter traits, or finding her "disgustingly old fashioned and clearly the product of some proto neanderthal male chauvanist pig who has no understanding of the strength and independance of womyn!"

i cannot give too much information on her however, as basically, i dont want the charachter stolen, as basically, you cannot trust these american megapublishers, who doubtless spy on the internet to look for ideas to steal and pervert for the tastes of their main fratboy audiences, hence the characthers name, past, main personality, etc will not be described.

however, before i do, wich will be in another post,. im now worried ive made this post sexist, but, i dont know how else to describe my feelings and image of many female NPC's in gaming now, i am literally lost for words. so, err, if someone could explain to me how to get it across without seeming like an "opressive woman hater who would have us all back at the sink in hobbleskirts while preaching god at us" as that is NOT who i am, then i would be gratefull, and, once i have modified this post, i will tell you about the attributes of the charachter, that will make her the total opposite of the current videogame female npc sterotype, and why i am worried it could lead to a sales damaging backlash.

thanks.
